The White Hart Pub sits at the centre of the stunning Dartington Estate, nestled alongside the medieval Great Hall under the bowers of ancient trees. Choose a table in the grand feasting hall under a dramatic 60 foot beamed ceiling, in the cosy snug area or out on the gorgeous Great Lawn terrace. In the summer it’s the perfect spot to sit outside with a pint and let the kids run around the lawn.

We offer locally-sourced breakfasts, lunches and dinners full of flavour, freshly prepared by our dedicated team of chefs. We are the holder of a Sustainable Restaurant Association star, and have a menu to delight all tastebuds.

Steeped in medieval royal history…

The main Feasting Hall at The White Hart is one of the oldest buildings on the Dartington Estate. Originally a kitchen in the Grade I Listed courtyard of Dartington Hall, it was built between 1388-1400 by John Holand, half-brother of King Richard II. You can still see a rare and original example of the King’s “white hart” crest in the ceiling of the adjoining Great Hall entrance.

The pub’s Feasting Hall still has many interesting features evocative of a former time – the huge wooden oven ‘hood’ and ‘spit boy’ recesses in each side where those turning the huge spits of meat could shelter from the fire’s heat. Notice also the quirky ‘stairs to nowhere’ running along the back wall – to this day, no one knows where they lead!

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR FOOD…

We want our food to be good – for the farmers, for the producers, for the animals, for the land, and for your palate. That’s why we aim to only buy best practice, local, sustainable and fair trade products. Below is some of our current suppliers (the number of miles from us is listed in brackets after each name).

Tap to read more about….

Vegetables

We source almost all our produce from Dartington’s Walled Garden (0.3), Schumacher College Garden (0.5), and Cuddyford Meadow (7). We also use the local merchants Challices (3), who source locally and organically when possible. We occasionally use West Country Produce (10.9). And sometimes our neighbour Mary Bartlett pops by with gooseberries or currants from her garden (0.1).

Meat & fish

We buy meat from various small producers, including the Dartington Deer Park (1), Pig Out (6.3), Sladesdown Farm (6) and Cuddyford Meadow (7). We buy our fish from Sole of Discretion (23), who support small-boat fishers using rods, lines, or static nets, or from Kingsfisher Brixham, who also support small day boats fishers.

Eggs and Dairy

Our eggs come from the hens at Eggs on Legs in Torquay. We buy Sharpham cheese, organic Somerset cheddar and other UK cheeses from Totnes-based Country Cheeses (3.1).

Baked Goods

Our baked goods come from Lamaro Bakery (3.3) and Hylsten Bakery (6.6).

Pantry & Dry Goods

We buy most of our ambient pantry goods from Essential Trading (113), a cooperative in Bristol who specialise in ethical, fair trade and organic goods and practices. We also use Doran Packaging (8.9) for disposables and Caterfood (7.8) for our compostable take-away containers, organic oat milk, and sundries.
